I've never had that happen, but hey, I won't complain if it does. Either way it should be a fun show.

I will be there. General admission is kinda nice, as long as you're willing to do some waiting. Wilco is best up close, no doubt about that.

Daft Punk.

This is also a good album, but I think Quicksand/Cradlesnakes holds together as an album a little better on its own. But yeah, you can't really go wrong with either of these. Califone is great.

Surf green without a doubt, I've never been a huge sunburst fan though.

Yes, definitely.

I'm in the Debbie Harry camp.

Some programs/hardware haven't been made compatible with new Leopard/Vista operating systems yet. for example, pro-tools is not Leopard compatible at the moment, and they just recently got it going with Vista. If you're looking to buy hardware/software and have a new operating system I would check with manufacturers to make sure that stuff will work on a new operating system.

This is what I'm angling for As much as a Friday/Saturday Chicago trip might be worth it I don't know if I'll be able to afford it in February, though it's a possibility. I certainly hope this means continued awesome setlists through when they do come to Iowa in March.

Software these days is pretty advanced whether it is "professional" or "basic." Sure, I love working in pro-tools, the features make it much more powerful than a basic program, but if all I'm doing is laying down tracks most of its extra features are just overkill and extra periphery that I don't need. It really shines in the advanced editing/studio setting. Garageband feels a little too much like it's oriented at just fooling around, Audacity is just pretty much straight, no-frills. My thought on PC vs. Mac, which I've worked on both, I think Macs are generally more reliable and tend to

Vibes, man, hope things get better.

Happy birthday dude, hope you enjoyed lots of fine brews

I think you should buy good quality microphones, a decent audio input interface and/or soundcard and then use Audacity (free!). It sounds like you will pretty much just be recording yourself, and really when it comes down to it the trick is just good mics/mic technique. I run a setup similar to this and it'll give you plenty of listenable stuff at a very reasonable cost. Audacity will run most standard audio formats and I think the program is great given it's all free. You just want to make sure that the audio running into your computer doesn't sound shitty, so that's the key really. Ther

Fantastic setlist. I really need to see Yo La Tengo (ie. they really need to come closer to Iowa)

Hurray Iowa!

3-5" expected by tonight, just started snowing now.

Only if they played Kicking Television, or Spiders...a full length Spiders.

Lowery Omaha natives, The Crop, make obvious nods to the Velvet Underground with their 2004 release Red Banana. The opening track "Forever Young (Cory Quirino's Guide to Fitness)" is a post-modernist noise-dance epic that strings out for 8 minutes. Allegedly the band wrote the song as a tongue-i

I really like that album in general. My sister introduced me to the phenomena that is Soulja Boy over Thanksgiving, that song makes me want to do damage to people/objects.

Apparently Iowa isn't that important after all

Well it was ice here too, but here's the view out my window, perhaps this will suffice

In the end people matter, not politics. Hope everyone is okay.

Have a punk rock b-day

Have a good one

I think you're referring to when he uses the electric drink mixer on the guitar? Nels uses one too, I believe.
